New American Standard Bible 1995
22 Only the land of the priests he did not buy, for the priests had an allotment from Pharaoh, and they [a]lived off the allotment which Pharaoh gave them. Therefore, they did not sell their land. 23 Then Joseph said to the people, “Behold, I have today bought you and your land for Pharaoh; now, here is seed for you, and you may sow the land. 24 [b]At the harvest you shall give a (A)fifth to Pharaoh, and [c]four-fifths shall be your own for seed of the field and for your food and for those of your households and as food for your little ones.”
